Nic,
if it is OK, I am going to include the XOXO exporter in the next test
release of Org-mode.
You may as well go ahead. I'll try and find time to update it to
include all the rest of org-modes output options.
One immediate thing I see now is that I don't think the code will work
correctly when the outline jumst levels (for example, going from a
level 2 to a level 4 and back again. Looking at the code I think in
this case it will only start one new outline level, but close two of
them.
Another issue is that I have recently started to make the export an
two-stage process. I first copy the entire file to a temporary buffer,
where I do some kine of preprocessing. For example I am making all the
links to use the now standard [[ ]] format, I am preparing the targets,
and I create links from all matches of radio targets. Then, in the
second step I do the exporting. maybe it would be good to do these
preparatory steps also before exporting to XOXO?
Finally a question. You have said at several points that using a
format like XOXO and do little or now structural analysis of what is in
the Org-mode file except for looking at the levels is a good thing
because you can then later use another transformation to do whatever
you want. But I guess that transformation code would actually have to
be custom written and understand all of the properties of Org-mode
files. So I am still wondering if it would be useful to have ev
erything that is Org-mode specific translated into something more
general.
